    Abstract
    Sri Lanka experienced different disaster events and millions of people were affected due to these events in the past. It also lacks an efficient emergency management system that will help in times of need. Proper disaster emergency alert system is most essential to save lives and this study was aimed at examining whether a mobile application can contribute to improve emergency response. In this research, a disaster alert system has been developed using android application known as MyEA to provide the Grama Niladhari (GN) map view, safe places, safe routes, emergency contacts and emergency links of the relevant agencies to user within a shortest possible time to make right decisions on their own without a delay.
